Hey Slau.  Okay, thanks for the explanation.

That would be a good idea to eventually have a repository of macro files to
get to the presets of common plugs.

Waves uses their proprietary menu buttons which appear below the Pro Tools
Factory Preset, Auto and Auto Safe buttons. These aren't technically part of
the Coco portion of the plug-in window and so, are not visible, on top of
not being automate-able parameters. It is possible, with sighted assistance,
to call up a preset and save it to the Factory Presets menu. It's
time-consuming but possible. QuicKeys would be a great tool to utilize in
this case but also requires sighted assistance, that is, until someone
writes some shorcut bundles that can be shared.
